Mark Nepo in his latest book writes about how our life
journeys are scattered paths leading to glimpses of wholeness when we open our
hearts. I was one of the two reactors to
Dr. Fredrickson keynote on positivity, and talked about how her work had
changed the way I approach my cancer journey.
I ask her for suggestions for our nurses that must move from patient to
patient, carrying the cancer burdens, and yet caring in ways that provide hope. As I started to close the session, and thank her
for the science she gave us, my words were covered in tears. Through the tears, I finally closed to the
audience of 400+ with, “What will you do different tomorrow?” It was a moment where the depths of my
feelings had opened my heart and I had felt wholeness.
